VOL. 8 No. 3 | September 2017

In late September 2017, five defendants and the plaintiff filed case management statements in Jahi McMath’s medical malpractice lawsuit in California state court.

Of note, some defendants note that their planned discovery includes an IME (independent medical exam) of Jahi on brain death by August 2018.

Some defendants declared that they “plan to file a Motion to Bifurcate the Trial of the issue of whether Jahi McMath is legally dead under California law, as this is the primary driving issue in the case.”
